Hotel Al Ponte Mocenigo

“I wandered through Venice’s far retreat Laughed in the sun, and life seemed so sweet.”
Venice brings out the poet in all of us; it is simply that sort of magical place, and any stay here must be in an accommodation that does it justice. So welcome to the Al Ponte Mocenigo. Situated on two floors of an old Venetian building, the Mocenigo is strategically located in the very Heart of Venice, yet still incredibly calm and seemingly away from it all, situated as it is right by the Rio San Stae and a precious marble bridge on the canal that provides access to the hotel, as well as its name.
Just arriving here by water taxi is a really authentic experience and once there, Valter and Sandro will welcome you in such a way that very much proves the art of hospitality is still alive and kicking – they are incredibly helpful and attentive.
The ten ample rooms are well decorated in the 18th Century Venetian style – even the closets seem to be antique pieces. Yet there is also Internet connection, Satellite TV, minibar and safe box. Breakfast is simply sumptuous which, weather allowing, and should be taken on the lovely landscaped patio. In short, what a great place, located in the less touristy but more peaceful district of Santa Croce, yet a stone’s throw away from the Rialto Bridge and the Great Canal where everything is basically at hand. We would also just add that the price-quality is frankly excellent. No wonder guests who have stayed here wax lyrical about the place.
A stay here really does make life seem so sweet.
